Hibba Abouk is finally on the verge of ending her marriage with Achraf Hakimi amid the PSG star's rape charges.

Achraf Hakimi’s marriage is on the verge of ending after just over two years of wedding his longtime sweetheart Hiba Abouk.

The 36-year-old actress and mother of two has since filed for a divorce from the Paris Saint Germain star, and recent rumours have now claimed there was a major development in the Hakimi divorce saga.

The unconfirmed report which has since gone viral on social media suggested that during the court proceedings, the estranged wife of the footballer found out through her lawyers that Hakimi’s bank accounts were empty as he had transferred all his money and assets to his mother’s name, leaving the Spanish-Tunisian actress nothing to part with.

Pulse Sports cannot verify the authenticity of this claim as neither Hakimi nor his wife, Hiba confirmed the report.
